From Times Wire Reports

A man accused of a shooting rampage at a Tacoma shopping mall told authorities to “just follow the screams” when he called them shortly before opening fire with a pair of assault rifles, according to court documents. Six people were wounded.

Authorities found plans for making bombs during searches of the man’s car and bedroom, prosecutors said. Dominick Sergio Maldonado, 20, was ordered held on $2-million bail after pleading not guilty to multiple charges.

Maldonado told detectives he had been humiliated during a troubled childhood and that recent problems made him want to be “heard.”
